elena's story

chapter three

I stood on trial before the heavenly court of angels. Even my dad was there And he was sad I was on trial for a rule I didn't even know was a rule.

"elena," started the judge "you are on trial for breaking a heavenly decrea of the highest order. how do you plead?"

"I plead guilty your honar. I did in fact go in that tunnel, and I did in fact have a conversation with God."

multiple angels gasped. "for this, I sentence you to hell because even in your admitting to breaking a decrea, multiple angels just witnessed you break another. it is against the rules to say the name of... that person I'm not allowed to say the name of. "

the judge hit his gavel on the thing and a portal oppened to hell. My dad tried to stop these guys from sending me to hell. "She didn't know it was against the rules"

"stop, I broke the rules. I did say God, and I will continue to say that word. So if it means being punished to hell, I'll do it."

I jumped through the portal and fell, for some reasone my wings had stopped working right and I landed on a broken road on top of an overlord named vivien. vivien quickly got away and ran into a nearby building. "Fuck this shit! why is a fucking angel here on any day other than extermination day?!"

"wait!" I tried to get vivien come back. "I was sent her as a punishment. I can't even use my wings and I don't know why." I tried flying but only getting 6 inches off the ground before my wing glenched up in tremendous pain and I fell again.

vivien hesitantly came out of the building to get a closer look at me with my torn and bloody dress. I had lost one of my shoes.

"Your wing is torn. That's why you can't use it." vivien was surprised to see me in such a weakened and vulnerable state.

I looked at my wing and saw hat sure enough, the blood all over my dress was from my very ripped wing. I must have caught it on a radio tower when I fell.

"I suppose you are right."

"but angels can't be killed. r-right?"

"I hope you are wrong," I took a shacky step forward, and vivien jumped back, "because God told me gabriel is supposed to declare war against heaven. if this happens, gabriel will be on your side. And I hope that happens for you because my own people rejected me for breaking a rule I didn't know about."

(a sacrafice will have to be made by someone who is rejected by her own kind) I laughed because I realized that is me. I'm going to have to sacrafice myself eventually. but right then, I passed out from too much blood loss.
